    I had CJ ads displayed on my blog. And suddenly all of them changed to some weird ads today. I never hosted these pop up blocker, spyware etc ads. :mad: but all my ads were about Mortgage (GoApply.com) and Jevene and StartLogic etc.

    Is this that my system is hacked or my blog is hacked? I hope its only for my system and not for all who go to my blog.

    But this makes me think that, whoever has the system affected by spyware would see these popup ads which I never meant to show them there :(

    Suggest me something bros, whats happening here!!

    I see mortgage, goapply, etc. Sounds like you need to check your system for spyware.

    download and run adaware and spybot. Blog about your experience so that your end users can do the same.

    The new Microsoft Anti-Spyware actually works REALLY well. I like it even better than Adaware. Whats really cool too is if you encourange your visitors to use it - it even identifies parasites and explains something like, this adware is known to replace site ads and steal affiliate commissions.

    Microsoft Anti-Spyware works and does detect spyware that the others don't but it also misses a lot.

    What I am saying is use it in conjunction with your other programs. I have five that pick up different types of spyware. None do the job on there own.

    What I don't like about Microsoft Anti-Spyware is that it still lets the same spyware through time after time.
    It's useless as a blocker.
